Erin discusses the science of personality, with a particular focus on the dark tetrad: narcissism, sadism, machiavellianism, and psychopathy. How do we assess for these traits? What's the difference between psychopath and sociopath? Are Kathleen and Natalie sadistic narcissists? Erin discusses all! Then Kathleen talks about the local case of the bedroom strangler, and Natalie tells us about the case of a man who faked mental illness to get out of a prison, but ended up locked up for longer.

This week Natalie interviews Dr. Adrienne Borrie about Deoxyribonucleic acid (aka DNA), and how scientists have been able to use this incredible molecule to solve crimes. Why do almost all humans have different DNA profiles? What DNA of our own are we potentially leaving at crime scenes? Can we get away with murder by posing as a DNA lab technician? Dr. Borrie answers all! Then Kathleen and Erin chat about two crimes where DNA played a pivotal role. First the murder of Yara Gambirasio, a crime whose investigation led to thousands of people having their DNA tested. Second, the case of Dr. John Schneeberger, a crime where all was not as it seemed.

Natalie talks with special guest Jeremy about the latest sleep research and parasomnias. How do you sleep walk, talk? What about sleep sex? Then Kathleen and Erin present cases of two infamous sleepwalkers. Decide whether or not these 19th-century killers are culpable of their crimes.
